Here is Chapter 11.

So after a long night of just talking with Marissa, Ryan awoke with a need for a black coffee. Upon leaving Marissa's room he noticed the house was a mess. So he decided to make a cup of coffee and start on the clean up. Summer kicked everyone out. And Seth eventually woke up to help the two. Marissa woke up around one when Ryan returned with her breakfast in bed. She smiled.

Marissa- What time did you get up? We were up pretty late.

Ryan- Ya, I got up around eight though. Summer, Seth and I cleaned for a bit. Summer went and dropped off Seth. She wants to come back and take you to lunch though.

Marissa smiled.

Marissa- Thanks, I'm sure the house was a wreck. No one likes the post rager clean up. Did you run into Lindsey?

Ryan- No but I'm glad I didn't she was so wasted last night, she is probally still buzzed.

Marissa- Yeah. I'm trying not to be the jealous girlfriend but seeing her kiss you pissed me off.

Ryan laughed and gave her a sweet kiss on the nose.

Ryan- I'd be pissed if some drunk guy kissed you too.

Marissa smiled. Ryan and her enjoyed breakfast and they talked and hung out for a while. Marissa was deciding what to wear later when she heard her phone ring. She saw it was a text from Summer. Summer was coming to get her in an hour. Marissa picked out a top and went to the bathroom to change and get ready. A few minutes later she returned and crawled into bed with Ryan.

Ryan- All dolled up?

Marissa giggled and gave him a peck which turned into more.

Marissa- Your amazing you know that?

Ryan grinned.

Ryan- I get that a lot actually.

Marissa- Well somewhere inbetween meeting your mother, bumming a cigarette, and having you clean my house. I might have to say I fell in love with you Ryan Atwood.

Ryan- I would say the same to you Ms. Cooper.

They giggled and engaged into a heavy makeout session. Ryan was working on Marissa's shirt when the door bell rang. Ryan groaned and fell back. Marissa smiled and whispered later before leaving the room to get the door. Summer was on the other side. Marissa got her things as Ryan came out and kissed her goodbye saying hi to Summer on the way out. Marissa and Summer then hopped into Summer's car and headed to the arches.

Summer- So you and Chino are sort of gross at this point.

Marissa smiled and blushed.

Marissa- Yeah, oh but you know what. Lindsey kissed him last night.

Summer gave a surprised and angry look.

Summer- I will have to go rage black out on her as.s.

Marissa giggled.

Marissa- Well she was hammered. But I still can't wait till she takes off.

Summer- Yeah that's awful. But I guess its good Chino told you. Or did you see it?

Marissa- I saw her do it. But I saw him push her away. I trust him.

Summer- Well that's good. Where were you all last night though? If you weren't killing Lindsey that is?

Marissa- I was in my room with Ryan.

Summer raised her eyebrows suggestively and Marissa laughed.

Marissa- No actually, we talked.

Summer- Right I believe Chino can talk.

Marissa- No he can and he did. We talked about… TJ. Which was weird I never really talked to him about it. He talked a lot about his child hood too. The alcohol part of it. I think it was good for him.

Summer- Yeah Coop. That was a scary night in TJ. I had to call 911 as Ryan carried you out of the alley. Seth just stood there scared though.

Marissa smiled at the thought of Seth in an emergency like that.

Summer- Ryan saved your life that day. As scary as that is.

Marissa- Yeah. That was not my finest hour. But that aside. What did you and Seth get up to last night. Ryan said you guys picked up one trashed house.

Summer- We did. Last night Seth and I just kind of hung out though. Lots of kids from school were there. I was social. Seth was just Seth though.

Marissa laughed. The girls continued to enjoy there lunch. Lindsey was packing her things back at Marissa's while Seth and Ryan played rock band on the wii with Sandy. A few days went by and Lindsey left. No one really was going to miss her. But she seemed happy to have spent some time with Caleb. The day she left Marissa, Ryan, Seth, and Summer went to a Weezer show at the Bait Shop. Life seemed to be on track.
